Abstract

Herein we report a green approach for the synthesis of metal/metal oxide nanoparticle decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes using focused solar radiation. The synthesis method demonstrates a large scale, cost effective and spontaneous production of carbon nanotube supported metal/metal oxide nanoparticles for energy and biological applications.
